highly recommended

I have used these for years, and have recommended them to many guys in my group. They are really fantastic tires for avoiding flats. Maybe not as supple as some other more expensive tires, but they make up for that in longevity.

Smooth & fast

Got these to replace a set of really old Vredestein Fortezza's, which have been my main tire for all my bikes to date. (They were great, smooth, fast and durable, I can't even remember the last time I got a flat).Slapped on the Rubino's, which are definitely harder to put on, quite tight on some rims. Once on, they're okay. First ride, they felt quite sluggish for some reason, I was doubting my choice. However, seemed to get much better on subsequent rides. They are definitely a smoother tire than any of my Fortezza's, really numbs out the small vibrations. Grip is a bit better, though that could be due to comparison to old tire. But the bonus is that the tire no longer feels sluggish, in fact, quite fast. Smooth riding and fast? What's not to like? Only thing in question is durability now, only time will tell. So far so good, would buy again.

Durable & smooth so far

I put these on my commuter, with only around 500km on these so far. They feel great. Smooth rolling resistance, good grip in light rain (looking forward to see how they manage a Vancouver winter), and sufficiently durable so far. I've ridden over glass and only given the tire a quick wipe, and after the ride haven't had any glass shards infiltrating the rubber. Tire surface wear appears acceptable considering the mileage.

Bomb-proof tires (tyres)

5

The indestructible nature of these tires made me reluctant to take them off... then one day I did a calculation and realized I had 14,000K on them (with one puncture)! Needless to say, they were beginning to slip a bit in the rain so I begrudgingly put on a new set.

Incredible deal for the best training tire

4

I've purchased many a price-point tire for training over the years, and these are far and away the best. Decent road feel, low rolling resistance, good cornering, rarely flat, and rear tires last 5,000 km or more. Buy 6, use a coupon code, and you're rolling for a couple of years at under $25 a tire. Unbeatable.
